Frequently Asked Questions
How the LegalCops lawyer directory works for people looking for a lawyer and for advocates who list with us.
About LegalCops
What is LegalCops?
LegalCops is a legal-information and lawyer-discovery platform run by Legal Cops Consulting Private Limited. The directory at lawyer.legalcops.com helps you find independent advocates; the main website legalcops.com offers legal information and services.
Is LegalCops a law firm? Does it give legal advice?
No. LegalCops is not a law firm and does not give legal advice. Advice is given by the advocate you choose, who is responsible for it.
Does LegalCops recommend particular lawyers?
No. We do not rank lawyers on merit or recommend one over another. Lawyers on paid plans may appear first and are clearly labelled “Featured”.
Finding a lawyer
How do I find the right lawyer?
Search by legal issue, practice area, city, court or language on the Find a Lawyer page, then compare profiles. Our practice area guides explain which kind of lawyer usually handles your issue.
What does the “Verified” badge mean?
It means LegalCops has checked the advocate’s enrolment details. It does not certify the quality of the lawyer’s work. Profiles without the badge show information supplied by the lawyer that has not yet been checked.
Who sets the consultation fee?
Each advocate sets their own fees. Confirm the fee and payment method with the advocate before the consultation.
How do appointments work?
Choose a date and time from the lawyer’s availability (where online booking is offered) or send an appointment request. The lawyer confirms it. You will receive a private link to cancel or reschedule.
Can I consult from outside India?
Yes. Times are shown in India time and your local time, and many advocates consult by phone or video. See NRI lawyers.
How do reviews work?
Only clients whose consultation booked through LegalCops is marked complete can leave a review, through a private link. Reviews are moderated, and lawyers may reply publicly.
Privacy and safety
Is the information I send confidential?
Your contact details and messages are shared only with the lawyer you contact and LegalCops administrators, and are never shown publicly. Avoid sending sensitive documents until you have engaged a lawyer.
How do I report a problem with a lawyer or a profile?
Email complain@legalcops.com with the profile link and details. Complaints about professional misconduct by an advocate can also be made to the State Bar Council concerned.

What is the difference between free and paid plans?
